In our group, we focus on protein assemblies that are used as functional materials in various places in nature. We are advancing their engineering, precise structural analysis, computational design, and functional analysis using molecular dynamics methods. Through the unique ideas of lab members, we are continuously creating innovative functional protein materials that solve biotechnology and energy problems, such as molecular machines that move precisely, artificial enzymes that surpass natural ones, and molecular cages that can stably preserve target proteins without the need for purification.
